List of changes since Clutter 1.7.14

Make sure that setting :use-markup does not depend on the order
Setting the :use-markup property should yield the same results regardless of whether the :text property is also set before or after. This applies to ClutterText defined using ClutterScript as well.
Protect against multiple unrealize call on ClutterStage
This should fix a segmentation fault in clutter-gtk when unrealize() is called multiple times on an already unrealized stage.
Fortify ATK event listener
Make sure that we subscribe only to the events we want to, and avoid warnings caused by AT-SPI, as well as a leak.
Documentation fixes
Translation updates
Indonesian, British English, Brazilian Portuguese, Oriya, Polish, Latvian, Hindi, Danish, Chinese (Simplified), Lithuanian, Turkish, Russian, Spanish, Asturian.
